WP 8 professional has Desirable feature. What, To who. 1% of the users.

Corel KDE gui improved, how??? KDE is clunk city. Making things more like borg is not what I call an improvement.

Corel has advanced the state of the art far beyond any other distributor??? WOW..(and I thought I was the marketzoid) Latest kernal has improved plug and play which will improve all distributions.

As to Debian, it is the most reliable and stable flavor of Linux??

On what do you base the last two claims? As to the stability and reliability vs other distributions, what are the the facts and figures. I've used several distributions extensively and none ever crashed. So all five distributions that I've used are equally stable and reliable. But I cannot say if debian is as reliable. My guess it that it is. But in that debian does not support the redhat package manager I will not be trying it as the redhat package manager is 3 to 4 times simpler and far more reliable in installing packages than other unix package install methods.

Also this little resource makes finding simple to install packages for my Linux a no brainer in KISS.

Scott watman.com read the applet.

How many man month's of experience do you have using Linux, any distribution? Every post I make and every web page I create are created in a 100% pure Linux garden of Eden. This week it's mostly with redhat 5.2, 6.0 6.1 with a little slackware on the side.

Scott your post contained no misstated facts, but it did contain many questionable opinions that I've heard often none has every been quantified with facts. So with everyone having opinions, I continue to rely on what I have personally seen and measured.
